Well I listed it on Swappa and didn't think it though and it sold last night. Now I'm screwed.

I'm not sure if this applies to anyone, but I found out that Chase points use against Apple products gets the same bonus as travel. For example I have Chase Reserve. I am able to buy $999 iPhone Pro for 66k points. If I were to cash out that 66k it would be $660, which is a great deal. Been saving these Chase points for travel but since there's no where to go during COVID I might as well drop these points on the iPhone.

Swappa is pretty darn good. The only problem is one time someone tried to claim I sent the wrong thing damaged and disputed one of my sales. When that happened, presented a packing video, shipment image, and drop off video to swappa and the buyer lost.

What makes Swappa better than eBay?

the pacific blue looks nice, but im not so sure about the shiny stainless steel edges. 
also the magnets arent that strong. seems like the wallet attachment can easily fall off. No thanks on that.

It has stricter rules for buyers and sellers. It can be challenging to sell because buyers can return for any reason for the most part. I had someone damage a pixel i bought years ago and tried to pin it on me. I wound up having to take the phone back and take the hit on the price. That was only one time, however.
As a buyer, it’s great, though. Far better than eBay overall.
I still occasionally use eBay, but not for electronics anymore.

I typically stick one case for the time I have a phone. If you have money to burn, can I direct you to my Onlyfans?

It's here! I'm happy with how much lighter the 12 is than the 11. It's definitely got that iPhone 5 feel to it

Everyone knows you never buy gen1 Apple. Magsafe 2 will have 5w, be 1mm smaller and have multiple colors available.

Uuhhh the iPhone 12 doesn’t have the dual pane capabilities that the iPhone 11 had. Meaning no more dual panes in settings, mail, or iMessage even though the screen is the same size

Dual pane? You mean like landscape view?
i thought those were only reserved for the Plus/Max models.
